One of them was the vdesirabflity of having Democrats in | as Governors of important states | should Mr. Roosevelt be re-elected. Another was the hope that Lehman j{and Murphy would help pull through some additional Demo- cratc candidates for Congress. Besides all of this, there was the | | purely party view. No party which | hopes to remain in power at Wash- ! ington can afford to neglect the ‘comtant building up of its state organizations. Even in national defeat, the survival of strong state organizations is an insurance of hope for the future. There can be no question that, correctly or not, the National Democratic leaders believed that Lehman in New York and Murphy in Michigan offered the best pos- sibilities for solidifying party strength in their respective states. SENATE STAYS DEMOCRATIC For special reasons, New York and Michigan furnish the most prominent examples of this sort of political dovetailing, but they by no means stand alone. One lesser instance is Nebraska, where un- usual measures have been taken) to induce George W. Norris to stand for re-election to the Senate.

Just glance over the |list of athletes who are to repre- | sent America in the Olympic Games |at Berlin and you will see that it is ‘do:md with names of youngsters |who were unheard of a year, or even a month, ago. ‘ | Fellows like Archie Williams, our |leading hope to win the Olympic 400-meter championship, for ex- ‘am]xle A year ago Williams was an obscure quarter-miler attending | Sacramento Junior College and was unable to beat 49 seconds. His progress has been little short of phenomenal. This year in three | successive meets he turned in 46.1, 46.3 and 47 seconds for 400 meters, 1468 for 440 yards, compared to the listed world record of 46.2 (400 meters) and 464 (440 yards). He lost only two races this year, once when he tripped and fell at the start in a dual meet with U. 8. C. and again when he barely failed to overtake Harold Smallwood after being badly bumped around in the “nationals” in Palmer Stadium, Princeton, N. J. He avenged the latter defeat when he led Smallwood over the finish line in the final Olympic trials at Randall's Island Stadium in 46,6 seconds. Willilams is a pow- erfully built negro with tremendous early speed and a driving finish. Wrong Way Gets Results Then there is John Woodruff, gangling Pitt freshman. It is doubt- | fu "if Woodruff entertained any | great hopes of winning a place on he stepped out on the track in Harvard Stadium for the sectional tryouts and led Chuck Hornbostel to the tape in the “800” in the astounding (for an unknown) time of 1:51.3. The giant negro, with his unor- thodox style of running, ran his trial heat at Randall's Island in 1:499 despite the fact that the experts and coaches shook their heads in disapproval when he toss- ed his head back and lengthened his ground-eating stride until it |seemed that he would split in two. | He may run all wrong according |to accepted form—but one thing is certain: he gets over the ground mighty fast, @nd generally faster than the other fellows. Woodruff gives the impression that he is only beginning to run. When he gets a |little experience in the fine art of {rating himself the half-mile and |800-meter records will be at his quite a beating at his hands if Woodruff ever makes up his mind to try that popular distance. Archie San Romani made some | threatening gestures toward track greatness last year, but he came along rapidly this spring to hit his peak when he finished inches be- hind Glenn Cunningham in 3:49.9 to clip the Olympic 1,500 - meter standard set by Luigi Beccali of Italy in 1932. San Romani beat out Gene Venzke and Bill Bonthron in that wild dash down the stretch. Morris Miracle Man We had no real hope in view to defend the decathlon champion- ship which Jim Bausch won at Los Angeles in 1932 until Glenn Morris suddenly came to light at the Kan- |sas relays with a record-breaking | performance in the 10-event test.
